  2. JPDO Recent Publications • Concept of Operations for the Next Generation Air Transportation System • Draft Version 0.2; July 24, 2006 • Next Generation Air Transportation System Weather Concept of Operations • Version 1.0; May 13, 2006 Both documents available for download and comment: [http://techhangar.jpdo.aero/]

  3. 2025 NGATS Concept Operating Principles • “It’s about the users…” • System-wide transformation • Prognostic approach to safety • assessment • Globally harmonized • Environmentally compatible to • enable continued growth Key Capabilities • Net-Enabled Information Access • Performance-Based Ops & Services • Weather-Assimilated Decision Making • Layered, Adaptive Security • Broad-Area Precision Navigation • Trajectory-Based Aircraft Operations • “Equivalent Visual” Operations • “Super Density” Operations

  4. Weather Concept Philosophy Our charge is NOT about the weather … Rather, it is about the Identification and effective use of weather information (and supporting capabilities) to mitigate weather impacts on NGATS operations

  5. Weather Concept Scope/Approach • Scope • 2025 concepts for Weather Support (future vision) • Starting point for inter-IPT discussions • First step in NGATS weather functional analysis • Approach • Analyzed NGATS 2025 Operating Principles and Key Capabilities • Identified Weather Implications/Impacts • Established resulting Operating Principles for NGATS Weather Support Concepts • Developed Weather Concept Details • To Follow… • Transition “Road Map” • Transition plan for Weather Support - current NAS to 2025 Concept • Complementary products: • Weather System Requirements • Supporting R&D Requirements

  6. Weather Implications/Impacts AMDAR Data Access • Section 2.3 (Performance-Based Services) “… enables a definition of service tiers and allows the government to move from equipment-based regulations to performance-based regulations.” • 2.3.1: Aircraft are capable of receiving and transmitting weather information • 2.3.2: Weather sensors included in Performance-Based Services “… At a minimum, in addition to accurately providing its 4-D geospatial position, aircraft provide in situ winds, temperature, relative humidity, turbulence and icing information. Aircraft may also measure non-weather phenomena (e.g., volcanic ash), utilize forward or down looking remote weather sensors, and carry dosimeters to measure the radiation environment which is affected by space weather activity.”

  7. Weather Concept Operating Principles AMDAR Data Access • Operating principles • Derived from the analysis of the implications/impacts of weather from the NGATS 2025 Concept • Grouped into five (5) categories: • Policy and Organization • Data Collection and Access • Products and Decision Oriented Tools • Integration and Procedures • Enhanced Aircraft Capabilities

  8. Data Collection and Access AMDAR Data Access • Section 3.2.d: Aircraft “Performance-Based Service” includes data link capability for: • Accessing and processing in-flight updates to NGATS weather products • Transmitting and receiving aircraft weather data generated through on-board automation such as the Meteorological Data collection and Reporting System (MDCRS) or Tropospheric Airborne Meteorological Data Reporting (TAMDAR) type systems. Note: UAS platforms are used to gather such in-flight data.

  9. Summary • Under NGATS (Section 2.3.2): “Fully capable aircraft have a standardized set of weather sensors/algorithms to provide weather data to other users directly and via the [NGATS] 4-D Weather. Weather data from aircraft are valuable inputs to the [NGATS] 4-D Weather for providing advice and warning to nearby aircraft, and for providing input and verification for weather forecast products. …”
